Abstract: A method for steering packets includes receiving a packet and determining parameters to be used in steering the packet to a specific destination, in one or more initial steering stages, based on one or more packet specific attributes. The method further includes determining an identity of the specific destination of the packet in one or more subsequent steering stages, governed by the parameters determined in the one or more initial stages and one or more packet specific attributes, and forwarding the packet to the determined specific destination.

Abstract: A method includes communicating between at least first and second devices over a bus in accordance with a bus address space, including providing direct access over the bus to a local address space of the first device by mapping at least some of the addresses of the local address space to the bus address space. In response to indicating, by the first device or the second device, that the second device requires to access a local address in the local address space that is not currently mapped to the bus address space, the local address is mapped to the bus address space, and the local address is accessed directly, by the second device, using the mapping.

Abstract: A method for data storage includes configuring a driver program on a host computer to receive commands in accordance with a protocol defined for accessing local storage devices connected to a peripheral component interface bus of the host computer. When the driver program receives, from an application program running on the host computer a storage access command in accordance with the protocol, specifying a storage transaction, a remote direct memory access (RDMA) operation is performed by a network interface controller (NIC) connected to the host computer so as to execute the storage transaction via a network on a remote storage device.

Abstract: A Network Interface Controller (NIC) includes a network interface, a peer interface and steering logic. The network interface is configured to receive incoming packets from a communication network. The peer interface is configured to communicate with a peer NIC not via the communication network. The steering logic is configured to classify the packets received over the network interface into first incoming packets that are destined to a local Central Processing Unit (CPU) served by the NIC, and second incoming packets that are destined to a remote CPU served by the peer NIC, to forward the first incoming packets to the local CPU, and to forward the second incoming packets to the peer NIC over the peer interface not via the communication network.

Abstract: A method for communication, includes allocating, in a network interface controller (NIC) a single dynamically-connected (DC) initiator context for serving requests from an initiator process running on the initiator host to transmit data to multiple target processes running on one or more target nodes. The NIC transmits a first connect packet directed to a first target process and referencing the DC initiator context so as to open a first dynamic connection with the first target process. The NIC receives over the packet network, in response to the first connect packet, a first acknowledgment packet containing a first session identifier (ID). Following receipt of the first acknowledgment packet, the NIC transmits one or more first data packets containing the first session ID over the first dynamic connection from the NIC to the first target process. Dynamic connections with other target processes may subsequently be handled in similar fashion.

Abstract: A method for data transfer includes receiving in an input/output (I/O) operation a first segment of data to be written to a specified virtual address in a host memory. Upon receiving the first segment of the data, it is detected that a first page that contains the specified virtual address is swapped out of the host memory. At least one second page of the host memory is identified, to which a second segment of the data is expected to be written. Responsively to detecting that the first page is swapped out and to identifying the at least one second page, at least the first and second pages are swapped into the host memory. After swapping at least the first and second pages into the host memory, the data are written to the first and second pages.
